Something that may help in the promotion of Puppy Linux is attractive box art if you like to store (as I do) in a standard DVD Keep Case. I have found I store so many useful Linux distros in plastic sleeves it is hard to find the good ones quickly.

This is a fun project because anyone can contribute. Perhaps what is really needed is a template, in Abi word, with some kind of graphic, so anyone can type in a title text themselves, and then print it out? I was thinking of getting round to making a CD label because I've got several versions of puppy on the shelf. I suggest Abiword because its cross platform and is available for MS systems should anyone run into difficulty printing. I've got it for Win98se. Anyone know if sample Abi-word documents are available as templates?

I attach a template for Scribus. The spine is okay, but the text box in it may be a bit off kilter because I don't know how to lock it to guides. If you're having trouble seeing measurements, turn on guides.

Anyone got a template (or know where I could find one or could create one) for a retail box such as for PC games? I think they're 134mm wide by 192mm high by 34mm deep? I have a good idea for Puppy Linux.

I've got an extra Puppy Linux CD that I don't need anymore, it was burned at high speed, but didn't work on the older computer. I then had to make a duplicate CD, burned at minimum speed. I'm probably going to give the one I don't need to a friend, but I want a fancy case for it. (I also want a fancy case for the one I'm keeping )

XCF is preferred, that way I can tweak anything I need to with Gimp. (Please be generous with the Layers. You can always merge them, but you can't (realistically) de-merge them. It's always handy to be able to tweak the layout anyway.)

Well i made one for a DVD style case with that logo encorporated, you can find it here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=72533
